Radio gear issues

Post by Rich »

Having a few probs with my radio gear (ko vantage) in my rallyx car...

Basically as soon as you push the throttle stick forwards the servo rapidly turns to almost full lock. I've tried adjusting the throttle 'HiPot' i.e. high position but this doesn't change anything. If you push the stick in the other direction i.e. reverse the servo works fine. I've fiddled around with other settings but with no joy. Other things I've tried:

Different Servo
Different Reciever
Removing the failsafe
Reversing the throttle direction

I'm thinking there's a problem with my transmitter as I can't think of anything else to try!

Any suggestions?? :oops:

Had a chat with Tom Gardener this morning and he reckons the same. Will have a play with it later.

Cheers for the replies!

If the transmitter pot is damaged I sent mine off to a guy who fixed for £35. plus postage.

Sorted it now cheers, I changed the system level to 1 which doesnt use the throttle curves and just leaves you with basics like throttle high position, steering balance etc and that's sorted it :D

Nope, just that Rich couldn't remember how to do all the set-up on the higher level, got turned it down and got what he wanted.
